To determine if 7965 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7965.
If the factors of 7965 are only 7965 and 1, then we know that 7965 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7965 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7965 is only divisible by 1 and 7965, then it is a prime number, and if 7965 is divisible by more than 7965 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7965 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 27, 45, 59, 135, 177, 295, 531, 885, 1593, 2655, 7965
Therefore, since 7965 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7965 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
